| description |
This class contains photographic material connected with the work of the MMS (as well as its predecessor organisations) in Australasia, mainly comprising of missionary portraits, as well as mission activity in Tonga and Fiji. There are also a few images of Australian Methodist missionary work in the South Seas. The items show individuals, groups, buildings, and local scenes, featuring missionaries and local Christians, and include work from the commercial portrait studios of F H Dufty.
Where possible, each place name is identified by a contemporary standard form (generally taken from the Society's Annual Reports) and also by a current modern standard form (generally taken from the Getty Thesaurus of Geographic Names) where this has been identified as different.
